Ellie's is NOT that. Bright, clean, no smell of 'other people's stuff'. Fresh, very well organized inventory. Need a cardigan in a specific size and color and don't have time to comb through racks and racks of stuff? This is your place. You could literally walk in, look at the great signage and find your cardi in the right color and size within a minute or 2. Nice name brands in great condition (no pilled or pulled droopy worn out stuff). Add to that the owner is friendly, personable and helpful when needed an not in your face when not. Loved this place and found a great deal or two. Totally recommend.

As the staff learned what she liked, they made several excellent suggestions and pulled several items. Time for her to try things on. The thing is, my sweetie has MS so trying things on is a challenge. One of the ladies assisted her in the large dressing room while I sat nearby in a comfortable chair, and we had a fashion show. My girl was very happy with our purchases and especially the service. Wonderful shop. We will be back.

I am so surprised that no one has reviewed this discounted mecca prior to me! This place is simply…read moreamazing. It is basically like "Marshalls" on a smaller scale, and not as prissy. You know- they get shipments of stuff that other stores gave up on, and they sell the stuff at discounted prices. I believe that the trucks come on Mondays, and everything is on the floor by Wednesday. The peeps who work there are friendly and very helpful. They have a seniors' program and also a program for "Fridayers"...if you shop on Friday, you get a discount. Plus, you also rack up points and I now have a $5.00 off coupon, which equals joy. They do have a bathroom that is wheelchair accessible. Here are some of my best finds: -"New Balance" sneaks at just a bit over $20.00 -"Harajuku MinI" from Target -"Waverly" queen quilt for just $20.00 -Fancy, sequined "Old Navy" shirt for $6.00 -"Playmobil" figs for $1.99 each -"Blythe" doll address book for $2.00 (still there) -"1928" earrings for like $1.63 -"Yankee Candles" -"Dockers" in distinguished shades Just a heads-up: Examine items for defects. Clothes with defects is not such a biggie, but a wooden spoon that is crappy is a biggie to me. "Burke's" does accept returns, even if you opened/released the item. (That wooden spoon is history.) However, deeply discounted items (70% to 95%), cannot be returned. Heads up: the manager is slightly tough. She is probably fed up with irrational people. However, if you see broken glass on the floor, tell her. I told other employees three times, but I never witnessed anyone say "So-and-so, go sweep that up", or witnessed anyone sweep it up. I am big on avoiding danger, as I have seen many strange things in my lifetime. Go, and mention me so I can get more discounts.

I spotted Lily Pulitzer, Talbots, Chicos, and Johnny Was among others. I found a Talbots jacket I have regretted not purchasing ever since it sold out and a pair of Oncept sneakers in the perfect shade of pink and that was just the beginning. The staff are welcoming and helped me find a few pieces in my size I might have missed. Also fun: certain tag colors are 25 or 50% off I'll be back to shop any time I am near Waynesville!

He had several vests that he had taken in to have altered back in mid-May. After about two months of not hearing anything from her, he stopped by to check on them. She hadn't even started on them yet, and assured him she would start them the following Monday. Went back in today, now THREE months out, and they still had not been touched. He asked the clerk at the counter to just give him his vests back and he will be taking them elsewhere to have them altered. As he was walking back to the car, he passed the seamstress walking in. He mentioned to her that he was taking his vests since they still weren't done, and all she said was "sorry" and just kept walking. This is completely unacceptable. How much time can it possibly take to alter a few vests? How difficult would it be to contact your client and let them know you simply are not going to alter their clothing for whatever reason so they can at least get it done somewhere else? Be warned - if you are in need of a quick turnaround, you may not want to take a chance on this place.

Driving by it's hard to miss as the building is painted purple and there are dresses hanging from the gazebo, fluttering in the breeze. Don't miss the racks outside but once you enter the real fun begins. It's like walking into a rainbow as you are surrounded with colorful confections of clothing, leggings in any pattern you can dream of, silver (and more!) jewelry, handcrafted gift items and puzzles galore. The name of the store comes from the fact that they carry items from around the world. I love shopping here because you will find items you won't see anywhere else. I always get compliments when I wear something from this store. My sisters-in-law call it "the leggings store" because they carry so many (supersoft) leggings. Their specialty is tunics and dusters but you'll also find dresses, pants, jackets, and more. The sales team is a great resource to help you find just what you're looking for. Prices are mostly on the higher end but, in my opinion, reasonable for a curated collection of unusual items.
